New Delhi: Asking Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge to learn from his past experience, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh national general secretary Dattatreya Hosabale said on Saturday that the saffron outfit was banned thrice in the past but people accepted it. Hosabale’s comments, made during a press conference at Jabalpur at the annual meet of RSS workers, comes amid a demand from Kharge that the RSS should be banned.

“Society has accepted the RSS as the organisation which works for the nation’s unity, security, culture and development. It cannot be banned because a few leaders call for it. Three times in the past, the RSS was banned, but everyone knows what happened later. Before making any such demand, politicians should learn lessons from past experiences,” Hosabale told reporters.
